My comment was meant as a joke, Dark. 
Nonetheless, thank you for your most interesting link.

instead of the 1100t, i would get the 1090t...
1100t = 3.3 hyper = 3.8
1090t = 3.2 hyper = 3.7
price difference is $40.
the only performance advantage you are going to get is when encoding and decoding .mpeg4 and doing other VERY cpu intensive processes. ALSO, between a 5770 and a 5870, there is almost NO performance increase other than 3-10 fps... which is not noticeable to the human eye. other than that, it looks like a solid system. |

You need to buy a plain aluminum case and mod the fuck out of it.

I bought me almost the same configuration, only my cpu is Phenom II x4 955 (black edition) and the mobo is M4A79XTD EVO. This is a badass machine, you got there dark.

Most of those are custom, and not stock mods, but interesting regardless.
